Fenix2hey.. a quick question.. when my Xubuntu starts up it asks for "keychain" (it's in Finnish) password... where do I change this keychain password ? tnx in advance11:39
ochosiFenix2: the first time you started your system you were asked to set a passphrase to protect your keychain (incl. wifi-pwds)11:41
Fenix2ochosi: yes11:41
ochosiFenix2: the only way to get rid of it is to set it to ""11:41
ochosibut that involves losing all your wifi-pwds11:41
Fenix2I know the key. It's different to my normal password11:41
Fenix2ochosi: well the WiFi has been broken all along.. It connects and then it disconnects in a few seconds11:42
ochosiFenix2: right, but that's a different issue11:42
Fenix2ochosi: I have the WiFi key handy so where do I set the keychain password ?11:42
ochosiFenix2: let me quickly check just to be sure...11:43
Fenix2tnx for your input and effort ochosi11:43
ochosiFenix2: run this command in the terminal "rm -r ~/.gnome2/keyrings"11:44
ochosiFenix2: then log out and log back in11:44
Fenix2ok11:44
ochosiFenix2: then you'll be asked to set a new keyring pwd11:44
ochosiFenix2: set it to "" (meaning: blank)11:44
ochosiFenix2: then you will be warned about unsafe storage and then that's it11:44
Fenix2hai ochosi I deleted the keyring file and logged out and in .. then the system asks for password to WiFi ... I enter it but the system doesn't ask for a new keyring file ... what do I do ?11:55
Fenix2I try logging out again11:57
Fenix2now it doesn't ask the keyring password at all ... I'd really like to set it to something11:58
ochosiFenix2: sry, maybe you have to reboot for changes to take effect12:06
Fenix2'k rebootin12:18
Fenix2( this machine is OS X so I don't have to disconnect :)12:18
bilal03hello there12:22
Fenix2ochosi: ok.. rebooted.. now it says "Insert password to open the log-in key-chain" ( or thereabouts, it's in finnish) puttin <enter>, ""<enter> or oldpassword<enter> doesn't work12:22
Fenix2ochosi: Maybe I have to sudo something..12:22
bilal03i've got problem with package manager12:22
bilal03anybody for help??12:23
bilal03when i want to install anything via terminal i got this message12:24
bilal03Reading package lists... Error!12:24
bilal03E: Encountered a section with no Package: header12:24
bilal03E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/ci.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_maverick_restricted_binary-i386_Packages12:24
bilal03E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.12:24
Fenix2ochosi: help! how can I set the "log-in keychain" password after I deleted the previous keychain with 'rm -r ~/.gnome2/keyrings' ???12:27
Fenix2ochosi: ok that second reboot fixed it... Now it asked me to enter and confirm the key-chain password so problem solved. Big Thanks to you for your kind help12:34
Fenix2:)12:34
ochosiFenix2: sry, was away, but good to read it worked out12:39
